It's more like a spiritual successor but it's pretty clear it's going to be very similar since most of what is said about this new game is in comparison to DS. Messages and bloodstains are returning

Sounds pretty awesome so far.

I only got Demon's Souls last week but I'm really loving it. The combat is absolutely awesome. As long as they keep the combat in Dark Souls similar to how it was in Demon's Souls, I'll be happy.

Also, seems like this will hit on XBOX360 too.

Yes. Throughout the game, there will be both cooperative and competitive play with other players. Each user will enjoy a unique single-player game; at times, they will cross paths with one another. Depending on the situation, the time, and the playersââ,¬â,,¢ goals, those players may cooperate or compete against each other. The multiplayer system weââ,¬â,,¢re creating will envelop the single-player mode. Multiplayer will enhance single-player, make it more unique, compared to other games that emphasize traditional multiplayer co-op or competitive play.

Probably the Beacon Fire. It stands for a lot of things. It serves as a recovery point; when the playerââ,¬â,,¢s health is low, the Beacon Fire helps you recover. It serves as a respawn point as well. So itââ,¬â,,¢s powerful from a gameplay perspective. Secondly, the Beacon Fire will be used to share experiences with other players. Itââ,¬â,,¢s a place where players can gather together and communicate ââ,¬â€ not verbally communicate, but emotionally communicate. Third, itââ,¬â,,¢s probably the one place in Dark Souls where users can relax just for an instant. In this cold, dark world, the Beacon Fire is a place of warmth. Itââ,¬â,,¢s one of the few locations in the game that is heartwarming. It expresses this dark fantasy world Iââ,¬â,,¢m trying to create.
